I think one module name for all of the Web platform would work fine for programming languages joining to the Web platform only recently. But for languages like Java, I guess it would be nice to have a rule for obtaining module names. I'm curious how directory name (cssom, workers, postmsg, etc.) is assigned for each specification today. Can we use the same name as a module name in most of the cases? It wouldn't work for cssom, cssom-vew, though. - Shiki > > > -- > Anne van Kesteren > http://annevankesteren.nl/ >
